CHAPTER 215: 215 - DON’T TARNISH MY BATTALION LEADER’S NAME LIKE THAT.

"Oh, you’ve come to take a look at the snake battalion rookie?" One of the elders smiled at the tall, powerful figure approaching the council palace.

It was Long Tianyu, his deep golden eyes studying everyone there with coldness.

"Is Long Qingyi already here to take his reward?" Tianyu asked, surprised.

"Yes, and he’s already advanced to the second stage of the crystalline core realm, heaven knows how he found the time to make such a rapid advance, his talent is truly inconceivable. He’s in the vault with Commander Tang Biyue right now."

"A breakthrough? Already? And he’s alone with Biyue?" Tianyu’s shock was only surpassed by jealousy at knowing that Qingyi was alone with the poisonous beauty.

He clenched his fists, ignored the elders and entered the council hall.

His steps stopped immediately when his eyes focused on a beauty with long black hair and beautiful green eyes.

Her face of incomparable beauty was flushed and her steps slightly shaky.

Behind her stood a junior with a soft, gentle smile.

"Lady Tang Biyue." Tianyu tried to ignore Qingyi, focusing entirely on Biyue.

Biyue only watched him for a brief moment before turning her face away.

Without even giving Tianyu time to speak, she left, flying towards her residence.

The leader of the dragon battalion was stuck in place, unable to believe his own eyes.

Had that woman just ignored him as if he were a random ant?

The thought immediately made his heart bitter.

"You," Tianyu growled, turning to Qingyi. "What have you done to my wife?"

"Uh? What does Commander Tianyu mean by that?" Qingyi feigned a face full of surprise, an expression that only darkened the commander’s heart even more.

Tianyu stopped in front of Qingyi, towering a few centimeters above the handsome young man, their eyes meeting as he released a thread of murderous intent.

To his surprise, Qingyi didn’t tremble or even react.

It was as if Tianyu’s murderous intent was just a gentle breeze for Qingyi.

"I beg your pardon, Commander Tianyu, but I don’t know what you mean by that. And as far as I know, Commander Biyue is a pure, unmarried woman. Please don’t tarnish my battalion leader’s name like that." Qingyi kept a smile on his face.

Inside, he wanted to tear Long Tianyu in two as much as Tianyu wanted to tear him, but he held back.

Long Tianyu was at the peak of the rebirth realm and was still an enemy far above his current level.

"You-..." Tianyu’s face filled with fury, clenching his fists so hard that his nails tore through his skin and his bones cracked, blood dripping between his closed fingers.

He fought hard not to crush that damn pretty face’s throat right there and the cold gaze of all the elders on his back was the only thing that stopped him.

Not even his sect would defend him if he attacked a junior as valuable as Qingyi like that in front of all those elders.

With an angry grunt, Tianyu turned and left.

The handsome young man just sighed as he shook his head, his eyes focusing on his status screen.

[Name: Long Qingyi

Age: 19

Cultivation: Second stage of the Crystalline core Realm (120,000 lust points to upgrade)

Affinities: Lightning 98 - Sword: 97 - Charm: 1000 (can be upgraded in the lust store)

Spiritual roots: High-level lightning sword root (100,000 lust points to upgrade, new roots can be bought in the lust store).

Lineage: Blood of the Corruption Dragon God (Legendary grade, 2,500,000 lust points to upgrade.)

Constitution: Primordial Dragon Body (Legendary grade, 2,500,000 lust points to upgrade.)

Lust points: 703,093]

That amount of lust points didn’t seem that impressive, at least not until you remember that Qingyi technically didn’t even take Biyue’s chastity.

That’s what he earned with just a few touches.

He was sure that if he went all the way, he would probably have enough lust points to upgrade his lineage to mythical grade and, with a short time with her, to mortal grade.

Such a thought obviously made him extremely excited, but he quickly pushed it aside, returning to the area commanded by the snake battalion and reaching the dormitory assigned to him.

He would have to share it with twenty other male disciples, but Qingyi didn’t care much.

Taking a bed for himself, he lay down and closed his eyes, entering Ruxue’s world of mind.

It was time for him to test that bed.

***

Not far from there, Biyue locked herself in her residence.

Her body was relaxed, too relaxed, as if a ton of stress had just been lifted off her back.

But she wasn’t happy.

Her beautiful face displayed a bitter smile and her steps were still shaky.

She was Tang Biyue, the proud heiress of the great Tang family, her talent unrivaled among her peers, her combat feats already legendary despite her relatively young age.

But still, she had given herself over completely to a shameless junior, a being no different from a pleasure demon.

She would like to say that she regretted not killing him that very day when she noticed something suspicious about him.

But that would be a lie.

She looked at her hand and the pill resting in her palm.

Qingyi had a frightening cultivation speed and a bloodline of power that she could barely comprehend, but all that paled into insignificance in the face of that pill.

A pill capable of improving the basis of a person’s talent - the spiritual root.

Her family even had recipes for pills like this, but they were too expensive to produce, with high failure rates and only improved the spiritual root up to the ninth level.

She had never heard of a pill like that, capable of improving a spirit root beyond the ninth level.

How had Qingyi managed to get his hands on such a treasure?

Her mind raced, running through many possibilities.

She even thought about taking it back to her family so that their master alchemists could study it and try to replicate it, but she quickly suppressed that thought.

She wasn’t that kind of woman.

After a moment’s hesitation, she threw the pill into her mouth and swallowed it.

That was a gift she wasn’t going to waste.
